I'm Sick of this RMT.. Omg Blizzard made a RMT and the Bashers come out just to say oh well this is it Well buddy it has been "it" sense everything blizzard does if they move in the wrong manner you get on here and post "ZOMG LOOK AT WHAT BLIZZARD DID" Its a RMT for pets that do nothing ... WoW Basher says "Well it leads to other things" Blizzard does not believe in unfair combat so i realy doubt they will bring Epics who cares if someone can buy somthing completely cosmetic and how pathetic blizzard trys to donate to charity and you call them out on this and call them evil? for donating to a charity to save someones life you disgust me you peices of garbage ... WoW bashers says "Why did they donate it all" Well jackass they do have to support a entire company with many projects ... WoW BASHER SAYS "They make enough money from WoW" Actualy no they make enough money to support WoW and keep it up not there other games when it comes down to it they do want/need the money to expand there bussiness
I'm done you people are truly sick in every manner..
Also i would say Aion will have a RMT soon =] they are just WoW Clones after all

Just a couple of corrections here... Make A Wish does not save lives, it gives wishes to the terminally ill. Blizard DOES beleive in unfair combat. Thier game is full of it. But, that is not their fault. Completely fair, completely balanced combat will never happen. However, they will more than likely not sell things that give you an edge in the game, that is true. Next... Yes, they make enough money off of WoW to WAY more than support it. They make billions, no joke. However, the amount they make means nothing. They are a business, and they want to make as much as possible. Every business always wants more. To say they need the money is laughable though.
just another wow fanboy, move along people.
Apparently stating the truth in my sig is "trolling"
Sig typo fixed thanks to an observant stragen001.
Do you have any idea how much money it takes to support 591 servers across the globe not mention the 24/7 GM support they have to offer not to menetion the pay checks... im not saying they dont make extra but to support many other projects aswell you laughable to say they are keeping all this money.. and blizzard makes around 500million not billions you are not very smart about what you bash Your monthly subscription for a year barly pays half a GMs montly paycheck.....

thanks for that, that brings back a lot of memories!
Current Games:
I am anything but a wow basher and I agree with everything negative that is being said. It will happen my friend.
They make more than 500k a year, first off. And I never said they made billions each year, did I? After all their operating expenses, they pocket a large chunk of cash in profit. It is printed very publicly in their quarterly reviews as they are a publicly traded business.
Most of their GM support is outsourced, so VERY cheap. The little that is not outsourced is still staffed by minimum wage, no benefits people. And server expenses are not nearly what you are assuming, I am sure. I would be SHOCKED if their operating expenses even hit 100 million dollars a year. SHOCKED.
Okay then... If it happens all you WoW basher will have finaly got what you wanted Shut up about it. It makes me sick to hear people bash Blizzard for making a charitable donation and people have the guts to say somthing go put a million dollars in one of the jars... then you can say somthing...

First off, Blizzard is not a country. And yes, they do outsource, or they hire people that have only basic english skills. Every time I contact GMs ingame, they are terrible in english, and the two times I needed to call in, I got Indians. I have no idea what you are talking about. Also, being that I played the US version of WoW from Europe, you are could not be more off base, and you just continue to prove that you have no idea what you are talking about.
And big deal, you can chose tons of languages. It is not a mom and pop shop. They only need a handful of people, which speak a langauge or two each. That is why you wait so damn long to talk to one. And no, they don't pay all that well. Unless you consider below 25k a year good pay.
Ok let;s do a simple calculation
A P2P game with 300k subscribers is gaining profit wow has more servers so let's say 500-1k subscribers is enough to gain profit.
Now tell me how many subscribers has wow, 6+ millions do you see their profit?
I state in advance that I' m not a WoW fan & I don't like WoW specially, but think it has stablished a standard and is a pretty good game. I play EVE, but I have discerniment to see what is good and bad, and WoW is very good in its style.
Blizzard RMT is not for bashing it. It's for a good cause and it honours the company and the customers who contribute to it.
Real RMT is when you are forced to pay to buy necessary things in order to be equal to other players, and have extra exp and pots and so on...
Here we are talking in a very different matter. Blizzard is outstanding in many aspects, like this one.
It is a question of fangs.
I got the pet because:
1) I like the fact money went to make a wish
2) My in game name is Pandaren
5 more dollars to the hundreds blizzards has taken from me in the last 5 years is just a drop in the bucket...lol. QQ more about people playing 25$ for a change of their race than, 5$ for kids and 5$ for the money loving developer :P
Blizzard isn't providing the money for the donation...the players that purchase the pets are the one funding it. Blizzard is just passing along a portion of the fee.
You are a joke... you know that? I have called Blizzard quite a few times about billing/hacked account and everytime i got a american they have a support building where i live I drive by it to work before i moved =] My little liar but more to the point i moved to Japan for a school program for 2 years... Where i am at currently and when i called Blizzards support she advised me that i was calling from out of the USA and charges would be added to my bill explain that you are so easy to bash realy and honestly funny realy
and can you do basic math if they had 10million subs 14.99 they would be making alittle over 100million a month... spending almost all of that on support and paychecks
have you put 5 dollars in that charity your entire life? blizzard is bringing them a way to give someone incintive to do somthing thats right anyway

Blizzard is not makeing a charitable donation the ppl useing the store are, but Blizzard is more then willing
to take 50% of it...
Just make a true donation to Make a wish and cut the greedy middle man out who cares if they give you
some cheezy pet that does nothing but get in the way.
Assassin's like to do it in the dark and from behind.
Plus box sales. Plus server transfers. Plus name changes. Plus race changes. Plus faction changes. Plus plus plus.
What is this about you calling from Japan, and getting extra charges? I don't even know what you are talking about, it is like you are rambling. I live in Europe. I play US WoW just fine, as do thousands of others. There is no IP blocking as you said. You have no credibility. And just because they have a support building, does not mean that they do not still outsource thier jobs. Just because you called in a couple times and got an American each time does not mean crap.
Good lord...

... What is your point exactly? They want you to know english no matter where you are if you are in support. And doesn't that posting prove my outsourcing point?
My point is they want you to have a degree... and not be a jackass they hired off the street....
How exactly did u make this US account are u from american did u purchase the game from there?
I can log in fine because I bought the game from america giving me that .wtf no it does not block you but GMs from the USA have to be from the USA blizzard only hires people from there and where your in euro i would say yes they do speak bad english because yes the GMs from France can be connected to you but if you tell them you cannot understand there english they will connect you to someone else
